People waiting for a bus at the Greyhound bus terminal.
This photo is taken outside, with all white people, during the day and in a urban area. There is a huge group of white people with ranging ages.The sign of the White waiting room and the group of busses catches my eye first. this place is very crowded. The tone of the photo is dark because it shows how the U.S. society is seperating whites from black. -Laura B
The Rex theater for Negro People.
Leland, Mississippi, in the delta area. November 1939.
Marion Post Wolcott, photographer.
There is one person in this photo who looks like a child. This photo is of the Rex movie theatre, for colored people only. The photographer was outside during the day when he took this photo of this business for colored people. This looks like a rural area, but the movie theater is not extragant, it is not in the best of conditions. Other stores and business just like it, surround it. The tone of the photograph is negitive, because it is telling the story of how the U.S. society at this time seperates races, especially blacks and whites. If i could ask the photographer two questions i would ask, what race was he, and if there were many people around him, or just that boy.

Date taken, Febuary 1942 Dewey County, South Dakota. Great Plains farmstead.
This photo's setting is outside in Dewey County, South Dakota, on a Great Plains farmstead. This is a rural area, and the photographer took this photo in the day time outside. There are no people in the photo, just a power line that catches my eye first, and the farm has no veggitation on it. The conditions of the farm seem dry and lifeless. And it seems that nothing surrounds this farm. The tone of this photo is negitive because the farm is not flowing with veggitation, and has power line running through it. If i could ask two questions to the photographer, i would ask if anyone owned, or kept up with this farm, and why there is no veggitation anywhere in sight.
